[edit] Re-organization of the template

The current title "diaspora" sometimes leads to misunderstandings. When I first set up the template, I hadn't thought about that angle, and wanted to create a template linking various Turkish groups around the world in a single template. However there seems to be problems with the countries where Turks are natives (ex Bulgaria) rather than immigrants (Belgium). I think we should re-organize the template under "Turks" like the corresponding template about Greeks, then organize it so that we don't allow for huge expansions all the way to 5th century Central Asia, India or Siberia.
